In this manuscript, the effect of bone collagen peptide and glutathione (GSH) on the total antioxidant capacity, hydroxyl radical scavenging and superoxide anion free radical inhibition was carefully investigated. It was found that this peptide exhibited: (1) 71.92% total antioxidant capacity that of GSH at the range of 2.5 mg/mL-20 mg/mL; (2) 1.36 times hydroxyl radical scavenging that of GSH at the range of 2.5 mg/mL-20 mg/mL; (3) But superoxide anion free radical inhibition of this peptide was lower than that of GSH at the range of ...
